Congratulations to the very special MHCI+D Class of 2023—the 10th cohort in our program's history. It has been an honor and delight to teach in the program since 2017 and to serve as the Faculty Chair for the past two years (with special graduation ceremony emcee responsibilities!)
We design, build, and evaluate new interactive tools and techniques to address pressing societal challenges. Makeability refers both to how our technological innovations make new abilities possible for humans as well as our educational mission to help students gain new abilities as they learn and grow through research, invention, and human-centered design.
